Hi, how are you? Happy to see these clear skies and the back of weeks of rain, cyclones and flooding? Me too. I'm venturing back out into the garden and watching passionfruit grow plump, salvias give a pre-winter show and wondering how to tackle the pruning that will need to be done this season following a tropical growth spurt.

Things to make and do: I scored a box of old pharmacy and tiny food jars for $5 at a car boot sale years ago. There's pretty red and purple salvias in the garden at the moment. I'll make a show of them soon, I think.

Things to cook and eat: It's mushroom season. I know families have been into the Central Coast hinterland looking for pine mushrooms but I am happy to buy mushies from the local farmers market and you can practically smell the earthy deliciousness of this recipe.

Hello you. Thanks for stopping by, it’s made my day. No, really, it has. Anyone who loves op shopping, pottering in the garden, baking from vintage recipe books and having a good old nana natter is my kinda human being. Please stop by again soon.
